Ready for some Peace Raising? Ready to wage some peace?

Ready to focus on Nurturing Our Community: Body Mind and Spirit?

Or would you like to just picnic in the park with a few hundred like-minded folk?

Come to PeaceFest, Sunday, September 20 between 1 and 5 at the Byrd Park Roundhouse.

Richmond Friends Peace and Social Concerns is inviting all F/friends to participate!

Set up, table, make art, dance, sing, tell about how Peace Is Lived and Love Is Action. Committees, especially Religious Education and Race and Racism are invited to participate.

For close to 50 years, Richmond Peace Education Center (RPEC) has brought Richmond nonprofits and artists together in a positive, supportive, educational festival to promote peace and cooperation.  For 15 years (with a hiatus for the pandemonium) RPEC has hosted, with the support of our Meeting and other groups, a Peace Festival to celebrate the International Day of Peace.

This event is VERY family friendly! … and it will be bigger this year, with a compelling theme and truly diverse presentations bolstering “Nurturing Our Community: Body Mind and Spirit. ”

Our Meeting will have a table/booth, and we need a few folks to help set up, staff, and break it down that day. Even a couple hours would be very helpful.

Our rep to RPEC, Patricia Stansbury, can provide more information and help you find your niche in this celebration.
